NetBeans won't show the line numbers even though the Show Line Numbers is enabled in the View menu.

perhaps try updating the IDE.
I am running 11.10 and netbeans 7.0.1 this instant, and i just went view show line numbers and they dissappeared, then i turned them back on the same way. you can also right click on where they are meant to be and click show line numbers.
The only difference is that I initially installed this machine as 11.04 then installed netbeans 7.0.0 and upgraded both netbeans and 11.10. but i have no problems.

Well the upgrade to NB 7.1 didn't help. Couldn't turn the line number on neither from the View/Show line number nor from right clicking where the number meant to be and tick in the local menu the Show line numbers. Now thinking about this the upgrade didn't help 'cos I imported the old NB's settings.
I had them on for some time, but then I think when I installed the jVi plug-in (this gives you loads of vim/vi goodies in the editor) was the time when they disappeared.
So I started to poke around in the configuration files of NB and finally found the setting that turned the line number back on:
in this config file: ~/.netbeans/7.1/config/Editors/text/x-php5/Preferences/org-netbeans-modules-editor-settings-CustomPreferences.xml (this gives the preferences for the editor when editing PHP files)
There I had these lines:
so by removing this entry from the file finally gave back the control over the Show/Hide line numbers in the IDE.Code:<entry javaType="java.lang.Boolean" name="line-number-visible" xml:space="preserve"> <value><![CDATA[false]]></value> </entry>
Only their disappearance showed me how important are the line numbers hurray for line numbers!
PS. uninstalling the jVi plug-in didn't help, as it left the settings behind...

Now, just if someone would find this thread again here is the correct solution:
http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=207662#c4
In menu to set it to default:
Tools / Options / jVi Config -> General -> 'number' 'nu' <-- [tick this]
